Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965

Absolute Astonomy ^ | __ | __

[Lorianne]

Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 (Hart-Celler Act, INS, Act of 1965, Pub.L. 89-236) abolished the national-origin quotas that had been in place in the United States since the Immigration Act of 1924. It was proposed by Emanuel Celler, co-sponsored by Philip Hart and heavily supported by United States Senator Ted Kennedy.

During debate on the Senate floor, Kennedy, speaking of the effects of the act, said, "First, our cities will not be flooded with a million immigrants annually. Under the proposed bill, the present level of immigration remains substantially the same.... Secondly, the ethnic mix of this country will not be upset.... Contrary to the charges in some quarters, [the bill] will not inundate America with immigrants from any one country or area, or the most populated and deprived nations of Africa and Asia.... In the final analysis, the ethnic pattern of immigration under the proposed measure is not expected to change as sharply as the critics seem to think.... The bill will not flood our cities with immigrants. It will not upset the ethnic mix of our society. It will not relax the standards of admission. It will not cause American workers to lose their jobs."

True. It turned out to be millions.

That’s fine. By this time, Kennedy will have found himself to be a newly minted citizen of hell. I’m sure he’ll find it much like expected and not at all like his critics suggest.

Ted Kennedy on immigration through the years:

“The bill will not flood our cities with immigrants.
It will not upset the ethnic mix of our society. It will not relax the standards of admission.
It will not cause American workers to lose their jobs.”
(1965)

“This amnesty will give citizenship to only 1.1 to 1.3 million illegal aliens. We will secure the borders hence forth.
We will never again bring forward another amnesty bill like this.”
(1986)

“Now it is time for action. 2007 is the year we must fix our broken system.”
(2007)

This bill is a direct cause of our illegal immigrant problem we have in 2009.

[Swede Girl]

This bill was the beginning of the end.

A slow painful death followed by an eternity rotting in H ell.

[ErnstStavroBlofeld]

I agree.

[MaxMax]

Kennedy should’ve run for President. To bad he liked jokes about women dying instead.

[ansel12]

I know, that is why I can rarely even bring myself to speak during immigration threads.

[Lorianne]

He did run for President. He lost
